S08 E04 My Top 5 Books of 2024 as a Writer
Update: 2024-12-11
Description
Mary shares the novels and memoirs that came out in 2024 that left her with the memorable reading experiences from a craft and writing perspective—ones that taught her something about writing or showed her something new about what literature can do. The books are (in no particular order):
- The Wedding People by Alison Espach
- Molly by Blake Butler
- Old Enough by Haley Jakobson
- Grief is for People by Sloane Crosley
- Madwoman by Chelsea Bieker
She wants you to know that Margo's Got Money Troubles by Rufi Thorpe (a Kirkus Prize finalist this year) was recused because Rufi teaches with Mary in The Book Incubator, but it's an incredibly instructional novel from a craft perspective (and just a fantastic book).
